Area surrounding Cromm Bráighe
Glenn Rúad (Hi."Red Valley";S."Carn-imrath") lay north of Cromm Bráighe, where the Mitheithel had cut a small valley with a few strips of good ground and some readily available copper deposits. These veins of metal attracted Eriadorian miners and númenórean explorers in the Second Age; but the settlements there were under constant threat from the Trolls and Hillmen who liked to hunt in these valleys. They never flourished, and most of the copper nodes ran out.In later times, the Glenn Rúad was simply a settled place around the river ferry and one of the roads leading into northern Rhudaur and Angmar.
